Two weeks ago, the creator of Ello got off a plane to find he had 200 press interview requests in his email inbox.
What happened? He and his new social network were in the first few hours of a viral explosion, one of those rare moments you hear about when something, for some reason, just becomes a must have thing for hundreds of thousand and eventually millions of people.
Since those crazy first few hours, Paul, a long time designer and creator, has remained remarkably calm as he's worked with the Ello team to scale up and meet demand.
Mike talks to him about those first few hours, the reason for the viral growth, and how Paul has been able to remain calm as his social network has exploded in popularity these last few weeks.

00:22:51NextMarket PodcastyesMichael Connelly is perhaps the most well known mystery novelist of his generation.
Connelly is no stranger to Hollywood, having seen his novels Blood Work and Lincoln Lawyer make it to the big screen. However, his most well known character, Hieronymus "Harry" Bosch, had not yet been realized in this format...until now.
I talk to Michael about the process of getting the rights to Bosch back from Paramount, the bidding process, and how the overall experience has been working with Amazon Studios as they ramp up their efforts for original content to compete with the likes of Netflix, HBO and others.

Douglas spent more than two years writing a book about this and came out with a fairly interesting work, one that is, from what I've found, the most cohesive analysis of the impact of the digital clock, the increasing abstraction away from the physical world in most aspects of our lives and what people can do to counteract it.

One of the biggest of these new breed of content aggregators is Fullscreen.
In this podcast, I talk to Fullscreen's CEO George Strompolos. George, who worked for YouTube before he founded Fullscreen, talks about the evolution of the space, how they discover new talent in the data-driven world of YouTube and where he sees new forms of social video like Vine and Instagram fitting into the broader indy creator space.
You can learn more about Fullscreen at http://fullscreen.net

As many of you know, I'm a comics nerd and also interested in talking to those transitioning legacy businesses to online. Given that, John was a perfect fit. If you're a comic fan or interested in how traditional press content syndicates are adjusting to the digital era, this is a good listen.
We talk about this transition, their stable of comic strips artists such as Gary Trudeau (Doonesbury), Stephen Pastis (Pearls Before Swine) and more, their new GoComics app, John's background as a police man, and much more.

No doubt about it, Slate's stable of opinionated writers aren't afraid to tell you what they think, but if you think those opinions come strictly via the written word, you'd be very very wrong. That's because Slate has one of the best lineups of podcasts of any media organization, and the man behind their podcast strategy is one Andy Bowers.
In this podcast I talk to Andy about the origins of Slate's podcast efforts, why he thinks they've been successful, how important the podcast business is to the overall Slate media mix, and we also talk a little about the future of podcasts.

00:25:27NextMarket PodcastyesAdam Carolla launched his podcast in 2009, just days after his terrestrial radio program was cancelled. Since then, he's gone on to create one of the largest podcast networks around, featuring a number of podcasts, all centered around the flagship Adam Carolla Show.
In this podcast, Adam talks about his views on podcasting, how he runs his business, why nothing is "free" if you're running a podcast business, how and why he pulled the plug on his father's podcast, why selling Mangria is easier than running a podcast business, and where he sees Carolla Digital going in the future.

00:26:10NextMarket PodcastyesSummary: In this conversation, I talk to Rob Walch, the VP of podcaster relations at Libsyn, the company responsible for hosting some of the biggest podcasts today (Carolla, WTF with Marc Maron, Nerdist, Slate,etc).
During the conversation, Rob breaks down the market* by talking about how much of the market is currently using iPhones/iPads, why Google/Android isn't a bigger part of the market, where Microsoft sits in the broader market, etc. He also talks about how many downloads the typical podcaster gets (which was a difficult number to find when I was researching my piece on the market for Forbes).
If you're a podcast nerd, you'll enjoy Rob's insights into the market today and also how far it's come.
*by market, I mean Libsyn data, which I think is a good representation of the broader market in terms of device share, download averages, etc.

00:35:44NextMarket PodcastyesAfter blogging for thirteen years, the last six of which were for big media, in January Andrew Sullivan and a few close associates decided to launch an independent media company.
The decision to go independent wasn’t all that shocking since, after all, Sullivan had started his blog, The Daily Dish, as a personal endeavor while maintaining a day job at The New Republic. What was surprising was that they would ask readers to pay for content.
Utilizing what Sullivan called a “leaky meter” model, where frequent visitors to the new Dish would be asked to pay $20 a year or more if they hit a certain amount of reads per month, Sullivan was gambling that his most loyal readers liked what he and his partners were writing enough to put some actual skin in the game, paying not only for the next twelve months of articles, but hopefully for the next year and the year after that as they attempted to build a sustainable media business.
Two months and two thirds of the way towards his $900 thousand revenue goal, Sullivan was cautiously optimistic this week when I caught up with him. We talked about some of the lessons he’s learned, the decision process behind launching the company (and it’s business model), others which helped shape his thinking about new media business models, and what his biggest surprise has been so far.

We talked about some of the lessons he’s learned, the decision process behind launching the company (and it’s business model), others which helped shape his thinking about new media business models, and what his biggest surprise has been so far.

00:26:01NextMarket PodcastyesI'm a big fan of Linkedin, mostly because I think there's huge utility to the business social net's features. For someone who's long been both a functional practitioner and manager with strong editorial interests in a number of areas, the site's mix of business networking, groups and recruiting features has given me plenty of reason to visit on a near daily basis over the past decade.
And so when the company started to beef up its original content program with the hire of Dan Roth, the former managing editor of Fortune.com, I had a sneaking suspicion the site was about to become an even more important part of my daily routine. Dan came on board as Linkedin's executive editor just after the company had launched Linkedin Today, its curated vertical news effort heavy on algorithmic targeting. Before long Linkedin Today had become an important source of news for myself and millions like me.
Fast forward to last year and Roth and his team launched the Linkedin Influencer program, a handpicked, invite only group of super-influencers like Richard Branson, Barack Obama, Arianna Huffington and Herb Greenberg. Pretty much the top voices in almost every major business vertical.
I decided to spend some time with Dan to ask him how the effort has gone so far, about four months in. I talk to him about the idea behind the initiative, how the effort is going from a recruiting and posting perspective, what the overall editorial strategy is for the effort, and where he sees it going. We also talk about what business media initiatives and startups he sees outside of Linkedin that excites him.
So I invite you to have a listen!

00:20:30NextMarket PodcastyesStephan Pastis is having a decent February.
The artist behind Pearls Before Swine was just nominated this past week for the Reuben (the comic strip equivalent of the Oscar) and next week he will publish his first children's book, Timmy Failure: Mistakes Were Made.
I decided to catch up with Pastis during his white-hot month of success and we had a great conversation. We talked about how his iPad app (released a year ago) performed, becoming a children's book author, the secrets to success bestowed upon him by Wimpy Kid mega-author Jeff Kinney, the selection process he used to decide on one of the 10 publishers who bid on his book, the future of Pearls and much, much more.
If you are a comics fan or simply want to hear the story behind the book series that could become the next-big-thing children's book franchise, have a listen!

00:41:04NextMarket PodcastyesBen Hammersley is a prolific guy. From the five books he's authored, to writing for The Guardian and Wired, to his time as a war correspondent in Afghanistan, to his time working with the UK government and much much more, Ben has lived more than a couple lifetimes for someone only 36 years old.
But the one thing that Ben is most known for - perhaps unfairly given his lengthy list of accomplishments - is for creating the word podcast. He first used it in an article for The Guardian entitled 'Audible Revolution' and now, almost 10 years later, I catch up with Ben to talk about what he was seeing at the time and what has unfolded since.
Meta for sure, a podcast about podcasting, but it was a really good conversation that covered a lot of ground.

00:30:46NextMarket PodcastyesWhere can you find GIFs of Anderson Cooper getting blasted in the face with a leaf blower and videos of beagles doing the cha cha cha next to news about the Obama administration's new cabinet or immigration reform?
Buzzfeed of course.
And the man behind it all is Jonah Perreti. Perreti, a former schoolteacher, first became fascinated with media hacking and experimentation at MIT media lab, where he created such memorable experiments such as his letters to Nike and Blackpeopleloveus.com.
He soon took what he learned in the lab and applied it, helping to create The Huffington Post. It was in the wake of the 2004 presidential election, at a time when the Drudge Report gave the right a huge advantage in terms of swaying opinions and setting the agenda for the political conversation in America, but soon Huffpo, with its celebrity bloggers and catchy headlines, became an important and influential answer to Drudge and was expanding into other topics such as celebrity gossip, technology and more.
As Huffpo grew, Perreti, ever the experimenter, knew he wanted to continue to his media hacking ways, so soon he set up his own personal media lab in Buzzfeed. Before long, Buzzfeed's focus on viral content, memes and other stuff for the bored-at-work crowd translated into fast growth, and Peretti was a man with two jobs.
He eventually left Huffpo to run Buzzfeed full time, and today Buzzfeed has over 40 million monthly unique visitors, making it one of the highest traffic sites on the web.
In this NextMarket podcast, Jonah and I talk about his journey from MIT to Buzzfeed, the state of the current media landscape, emerging media business models, the state of political media and what's next for Buzzfeed.
Enjoy.

Readmill, which just announced its forthcoming iPhone app into beta, has been attempting to prove that readers want to enhance their reading experience with digital books using a social annotation sharing and discovery-centric e-reader that is independent of a specific piece of e-reader hardware.

00:53:22NextMarket PodcastyesRichard Nash is a publishing visionary who not only will tell you where he thinks the book publishing world is going, he's also out there trying to explore and innovate at the edges himself, first with famous independent publisher Soft Skull Press, then his own startup Cursor and, most recently, with Small Demons.
No matter where he's at, Nash always has an insightful take on the current state of publishing and where he sees it going and this conversation is no exception. In fact, I'd venture to say that this podcast is a must-listen for anyone trying to figure out what book publishing will look like in a few years.
Richard and I first talk about Small Demons and the concept behind the company, which is looking to marry big data and the world in between a book's covers. We then examine the broader industry, where we talk about future business models for the traditional "big six" publishers, the future of the book itself, vertical integration of content industries like music, movies and books, social reading, and efforts like Pottermore and Joss Whedon's Dr. Horrible as examples of possible leading lights for the future of publishing going forward.
This conversation was a bit longer than my normal podcast (over 50 minutes), only because Richard and I had so much to talk about. Again, if you're interested in the future of book publishing, I really suggest you give this one a listen.
